What are High Friction Surface
Treatments?• High Friction Surface Treatments (HFST) are
pavement surfacing systems with exceptional skid-resistant properties that are not typically acquired by conventional materials
• Generally proprietary polymeric resin-based products and processes
• Guidelines Document from the British Board of Agrément (BBA)
“…defined as having a minimum skid resistance value (SRV) of 65 measured using the portable Skid-Resistance Tester as defined in TRL Report 176: Appendix E.”

FHWA Surface Enhancements At
Horizontal Curves (SEAHC) Program
• Goals of SEAHC:– Demonstrate the effectiveness of HFST in enhancing/restoring friction
to reduce lane departure crashes at horizontal curves (and ramps).
– Measure the properties of HFST and monitor changes and performance
over first year
– Monitor crashes before and after HFST application
• Utilize currently available HFST products
• 3+ year study for each site
• Generally 1-5 sites per State
• Additional demos funded through EDC2

Phase I Observations
• For TWPD tests…
– Macrotexture and friction decreased substantially between 0 and 70k
cycles
– Macrotxture changed little between 70k and 140k cycles, but friction
decreased for all aggregates, with the degree varing by aggregate
• For Test Track sections…
– Macrotexture decreased steadily for all aggregates over 2.6M ESALs
– Friction decreased significantly initially, then stabilized for all
aggregates
• There was no correlation between DFT and CTM values.
• Overall, calcined bauxite showed the best friction performance
(highest friction) in both the laboratory and on the track.

Phase II Observations
• Aggregate Size Effects
– Very little difference in friction after wear between #8 and #12 size
particles, regardless of aggregate type.
– Larger particle size contributed to more particle loss under
accelerated testing
• Importance of interlock with smaller aggregate
• Depth of embedment of aggregate increased as particle size decreased -
resulted in less loss of particles for smaller particle size.
– Aggregate loss (lab samples) did not have a substantial impact on
friction

Phase II Observations
• Aggregate Shape and Angularity Effects
– More elongated particles (flint, taconite) show slight increase in
friction with speed vs. little to no trend for bauxite, slag.
– No correlation between particle shape and friction or angularity
and friction.
• Aggregate Wear/Abrasion Results
– All aggregates continued to lose mass after 50 minutes of Micro-
Deval conditioning.
– Rate of mass loss did not change over 50 minutes, but diminished
slightly for slag.
– Mass loss correlated with friction ranking for 3 aggregates, with
flint being the exception.
